    LOFT Fall Finds

    Hi everyone! I hope you all are enjoying the first day of fall! Not to sound entirely too old (I’ve reached that stage in life), but we finally got some much needed rain today and our forecast is highs in the 70s! I moved away from Florida to be done with the heat and humidity and I’m fairly certain it chased me all the way to the midwest. 🙂 That said – I’m loving the new fall arrivals hitting stores. It’s still a wee early, but October will be here before we know it. I wanted to share some outfit ideas from LOFT below. Right now everything is 50% off…

    Outfits Lately, Vol. 6

    Hi friends! I’ve shared a few posts recently over on Instagram and wanted to do a quick round up below on things that have caught my eye! Life has been busy lately and I’ve transitioned into creating outfits based on things I have either already in my closet or on my wish list. Below you’ll see more digital outfit creations versus mirror posts – those are all based on things on my wish list. Creating outfits in this manner really helps me out to see if I can utilize items already in my closet to complete the outfit or if I also want to add accessories or a pair of…

  • Outfits Lately, Vol. 4

    Hi friends! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! My big excitement this week was my horses finally arrived in Indiana from Florida! I haven’t seen them since June so I was pretty stoked to give them hugs and help get them settled in their new home. Today I wanted to share a few #ootd photos I’ve posted over on Instagram lately – I’ve finally gotten settled into a good daily routine and have had more time to get ready in the morning versus rush around and throw on whatever clothes I find closest lol! I’ve really been trying to wear my closet lately, so while some items are new,…

    Fall style: the accessory edit

    Hi everyone! Can you believe it’s actually almost fall? Per the calendar people anyway! We’ve already dipped down into the 40s up in Indiana and those crisp mornings are amazing! I took the dogs for a 3 mile walk this morning and between the cooler temps and leaves starting to fall, it makes me excited for October! Today on the blog I wanted to talk accessories. So here’s the deal. Yes trends come and go, some a great, some are whatever, and some we just can’t even – and that’s absolutely okay! But what about that J.Crew sweater you’ve had in your closet since college? The one that looks almost…

  • OOTD 2.15.23

    Hi friends! I have a big roundup coming for “outfits lately” I’ve worn over the last few weeks, but in the meantime I’ve been wanting to get back to just simple blogging. I used to post an outfit once a day (when things were simpler… pre-Tiktok and IG Reels haha).. and I recently came across a new (to me) blog that posted similar OOTD (outfit of the day) posts and I really loved the simplicity of it! And that is truly the heart of my blog anyway. I work 40 hours a week. I wear regular outfits. And truly want to just help the everyday woman get dressed in the…

    LOFT: Spring New Arrivals

    Hi friends! I’m loving the latest new release from LOFT! I’m so happy to see fresh florals and spring greens. It’s so funny how with the change of seasons we are excited to see the new colorways. I get so excited about fall new arrivals in August/September, and by January I’m quite over them lol! And the cycle continues. Right now I’m here for all the pretty spring colors. 🙂 Below are a few of my favorites! I placed 2 small orders over the last week, so I’ll share the keepers once I receive them in the mail! Below are my top picks from this release. striped sweater | green…

  • LOFT Casual Holiday Outfits + Spanx leggings

    Happy Tuesday! Is it Tuesday? I’m not even sure – holidays that fall in the middle of the week (e.g. Thanksgiving on Thursday) always throw me off! I had 5 days off in a row from work which was blissful, but my week is now confused. Anyway, I hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend! If anyone was brave enough to challenge Black Friday this year (I watched the news…. I’m glad I stayed away!), I salute you! Our local outlet mall located about 20 minutes from where I live was on the local news for Black Friday – I guess there was so much traffic no one could get…

    Flatlay Style: Striped Button Sweater

    Hi everyone! I hope everyone survived the work week! I actually have one more day to get through – we had to pick either Christmas Eve or NYE to work and I chose NYE. I hope I’m not regretting it as I kind of forgot that in the world of retail pharmacy anyway, NYE is one of the busiest (if not THE busiest) day of the year because people try to get all of their refills in before the end of the year before insurance coverage changes. Now with my new job, I AM the insurance haha! And I only really deal with the expensive, unusual cases that include medications…

  • LOFT Favorites

    Well hi everyone! I hope you all had a good weekend and if you have little kids, enjoyed trick or treating! My husband is working tonight, so I’m home alone – hiding haha! We have 2 rescue/adopted pups who love people once they get to know them, but wouldn’t do well with a constant door bell ringing and kids at our doorstep in costumes. Actually, they might be traumatized by it lol! So, here I sit in the dark, hoping they follow the “lights off” rule. 🙂 I actually decided to be a little blogger-y today and try on some items from LOFT I’m loving lately! I feel like I’m…

    Casual Style: Plaid Ruffles

    If you’ve been following me for awhile, you definitely know I have a soft spot for plaid in the fall! I literally want all the plaid shirts and have a hard time reeling myself in! I guess maybe part of that is I love a preppy look with a plaid shirt under a sweater or a longer tunic plaid shirt over leggings with sneakers. Maybe that’s the Indiana talking. 🙂 Well, I’m here today to share this cute ruffle plaid top from @LOFT! This one is a shorter length and perfect for a front tuck with high waisted jeans! Whether skinny, straight, bootcut, you name it – it’s a good…
